The background.

It's the distant future. Humans have traversed the nearby planets. On Jupiter, we found a unstable element called skilltonium. It's atomic structure changed to fit with any other element put in the nearby area, so it is highly valued. When we surfaced the first batch of skilltonium, it bonded with the dirt and iron, creating fiends, who were deformed and presummed brainless. But then it caught sight of the skilltonium, and consumed the first miners and the first batch. From then on, we've been in a war with these creatures, utilizing the skilltonium to bolster our own abilities.

The tech.

When earth's natural resources started to dwindle, we found a way to convert earth to data. We did so, and now earth contains portals in and out of this data world. Only things not created by the data can travel through these portals, because anything made of data dissipates into the portal itself, destroying it. Because everything on earth is data, anything is possible on it. As such, it became a "Hub world" of sorts, for humans to come back to, to relax, sell treasures found on other planets, and to socialize.

The planets.

Mercury - fiends traveled to this planet, overtaking the human population and enhancing their fire related abilities.
Venus - tamed by humans, but inhabited by fiends here and there, this world has become a new earth of sorts. Most human here dislike the data world of earth.
Mars - dubbed, "the discovery planet," tests of all sorts are done here by scientists, because it offers a wide variety of habitats. Fiends here have been tamed, and occasionally work with the scientists.
Jupiter - Battles rage day and night here. Fiends and miners do war continuously for the precious skilltonium. Only for the brave of heart or dumb of mind.
Saturn - only inhabited by fiends, due to the fact that the rings somehow block out portals. No one knows what happens here or beyond this point.

The skilltonium.

Skilltonium had an interesting effect on humans. It bonds with them, and changes their abilities, their skills, based on the personality of the bonded human. Small doses slightly enhance anything, but large doses tend to cause insanity, giantism, and rage. These behemoth humans are forced to leave earth. If they retain any brain function, they tend to become rulers of fiend clans.

The rules.

1. My game, my dice, my verdict. You are just the player. I use
Rollz.com for my dice.
2. Player versus player is allowed, assuming A) both players agree or B) you are In a fiend controlled zone.
3. Confused? Daunted? Ask me questions at pitmaster226(at)gmail.com

I need clarification on that statement. I have no clue what is going on.

I try to search on the areas that Narsh is apporaching when i slightly see him and nearby.

Narsh is invisible. For clarification, just in case I didn't make it clear.

Questions I have:
1. You are searching areas that Narsh is approaching. How do you know where she is? How do you know where to look?
2. ...When I slightly see him and nearby. Are you trying to dictate the battle?
3. How was I supposed to interpret this? Not to offend you, but the grammar is a little weird, and currently it looks like you are trying to dictate the outcome of your action.

...oh, i see. I thought he was just very fast.

2. ...When I slightly see him and nearby. Are you trying to dictate the battle?

I'm reffering to this:

Narsh was visible for just a second, before disappearing into the wind.

...Of course, i didn't know he was invisible before you actually said it.

I aim my weapon at where Denthil goes to, looking for a spot where he's out of cover. I try to keep attention of my surroundings, and if possible, cover.

Unfortunately, Denthil and Troni are completely hidden by the building. Fortunately, there's a build about 10 meters away from you. You just didn't notice it before.

I run toward the building, keeping a look at both the building they're in and Narsh if possible.

As you enter the building, stone wall shuts behind you. The room suddenly feels more eerie, and looking out the windows provides a still image. Suddenly, around you appears Narsh, in full armor, which contrasts her lightweight equipment you saw her in earlier. She dissapears back into the shadows of the upper level of the building. As though it were everywhere, a voice says, "You're mine now. Tee hee hee!"

(I didn't say to enter it but it'll work)

I slash my knife widely once, then try going for the door.

You slash, but hit nothing. You go to examine the door, and see that it won't budge. "Get out of there!" Shouts Denthil through the comm, "she's manipulating you! Get out, you can't win in there!"

"The door's not budging an inch." I reply to his demand. I seek for other way outs.

"I'll come to you. Keep safe!" He shouts, before static enters the comm.Again, all around you you hear, "Time is ticking for your friend. Tick. Tock. Tick. Tock."

I move forward stealthily so i don't block the door from opening, if it will open. I stay silent to her taunts(?).

You near the next room. "If you think stealth will save you, think again." The door opens wide. "Fight me. You can't be that scared."

What was she thinking? One does not simply disobey a team leader's orders. I think in my mind.

You leave, but the entire field is different. You notice that the building at the bottom isn't there. Denthil and Narsh aren't anywhere to be seen. The static in your ear is bugging you. While you're making sense of what's going on, Troni rises up out of the building behind you. She begins to take short bursts of speed down toward you, daggers in each hand.
